Maharashtra Cyber ​​Police has successfully secured a refund of Rs 2 crore as the first installment, bringing relief to the victim of a major digital arrest scam. This is one of the biggest such cases in India, in which a person was defrauded of a total of Rs 58.13 crore.

The office of the Additional Director General of Police, Maharashtra Cyber, had registered the case under several sections of the Indian Justice Code (BNS) and sections 66(C) and 66(D) of the Information Technology Act. Investigation revealed that the fraudsters, by playing the role of fake police and CBI officers, intimidated the victim and got the money transferred again and again.

Due to continuous investigation, tracking of bank accounts and timely orders of the court, Maharashtra Cyber ​​Police brought this great relief to the victim. On the instructions of the court, Rs 2 crore were withdrawn from the frozen accounts and transferred to the victim’s account. This step is a result of Maharashtra Cyber’s fast financial tracking and good coordination with banks and courts.

The victim not only got financial help but also got a lot of emotional relief. The department says that this success shows their strong commitment to quickly recover the amount fraudulently taken by cyber criminals and return it to the rightful person.

Apart from this, the investigation has identified several other assets, which have been frozen. These properties can also be returned to the victim by further court order. The search for the main conspirators is ongoing.

Absconding accused Devendra Saini is said to be the main operational handler of this network. Maharashtra Cyber ​​has announced a reward of Rs 3 lakh for his arrest. Anyone giving reliable information will get this reward.

Maharashtra Cyber ​​said that they will soon arrest all the accused with the help of sustained pressure, coordination between states and the help of the public. The focus of the department is to take strict action against cyber criminals as well as provide justice and compensation to the victims as soon as possible.
